@PuppetMaster I think is something a lot of people are forgetting because most of the in-house studios are western but we are just not seeing the fruits of the Chinese Hero Projects investments and its looking nice.
@Oregondan yea and even though you could switch weapon the skills were mid at best. Crazy to thin GW2 has the same concept with its skills but does it much better and that game is 12 years old
@Shepherd_Tallon I think if they follows the live service model of Helldivers 2 it will do well on that aspect it just needs to be fun in order to keep people coming back.
This game never claimed to be anything more than what is was from the start. People get made Sony doesn't have enough variety, then they make different games and suddenly "that's not what I wanted". The single player game aren't going away but you can't have. a business running on just that alone. Will this be good who knows, Helldrivers 2 got the same flack but that is also a PvE game so only time will tell.
@arsmolinarc From the day it was announced they said it was a PvP game. I don't know why everyone is acting like this is brand new news.
I wanted to buy this one when it originally came out but after playing the second one and hearing how inferior the first one is compared to the second I don't think I will.
I am always surprised how Falcom manages to get these games out the door so quickly when they have such a small budget. It makes you wonder what's going on with other studios.
This will be my first entry looking forward to it.
@LordAinsley It wasn't a bad game but the net code was harsh and laggy. Plus you have the Smash Bro purist who think only Smash is allowed to exist in this space.
There have been a lot of "SIM" games out there but still nothing has yet to outshine The Sims. A friend of mine was highly addicted to Second Life in college and almost ended up flunking out though, so there is a chance.
@Fiendish-Beaver That is incorrect as they have already stated some are being laid off while others are being transferred so not everyone is keeping their job.
@Kraven Ok so we are on the same page because I was trying to find the similarities and didn't see any. Unless someone can point them out this seems like and Slay the spire

Re: Sony's New PS5, PC Shooter Concord Confirmed as a $40 Game
@Medic_alert It's funny people complained Sony didn't have a diverse set of games on the system then made something different and people complained.

So umm has anyone heard from Firesprite? They seem to be making a game but are nowhere to be found.
Is Neo Koi new? Never heard of this acquisition

Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows the Actual Name of AC Red, Reveal This Week
@Jaz007 I mean traditional in scope and size like the older AC games not the concept.
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows the Actual Name of AC Red, Reveal This Week
@WolfyTn Odd thing to say
Re: Assassin's Creed Shadows the Actual Name of AC Red, Reveal This Week
@Jaz007 From my understanding this one is in the vain of Valhalla open stuff and the one after aka Hex is more traditional.

Re: Ghost of Tsushima Freezing Fixed, No Update Required
